Suddenly it seems like a really good idea to keep butter in a plastic bag. Knead it a little to warm it up and make it spreadable, squeeze the desired amount right onto the bread from a little nozzle, and no air can get to the surface.

I guess people just liked it better that way. Connecticut somehow claimed the title of Nutmeg state but I'm not sure how that worked.

There's a regional creamery that makes tubs of whipped butter for easy spreading! Except 1. It doesn't spread easier, at all, and 2. It's the most tasteless, palest butter I've ever had. I've bought bricks of Walmart brand butter that are better. It makes me concerned for those cows. Are they locked in a closet? What do they eat? Why does this butter taste of nothing??? I'm just gonna carry on having both margarine and butter for different purposes.

I never cared much about the distinction, which is good because I can't eat real butter anymore.

I grew up eating almost exclusively margarine because it's "healthier" but then my parents decided that actually, it's not, and then swung to exclusively butter. That was a weird change

This butter chat is pissing me off because it's reminding me that it's getting to the time of year where the butter that sits in the butter dish isn't soft at room temp anymore because it's too cold outside

My folks use the kind that's hard and brittle because it's 25% healthier or whatever. And then they use a ton more on stuff than I do of actual butter, so

If I was being a piece of poo poo and dumping I'd just dump it in one spot and book it, not carefully spread a single layer of bread over an area.

Holy gently caress, that's a lot of bread. No bags, no trays, no dollies. Once stale is in that state, it's off to the pig farmers, IME. Another possibility, because I've seen someone do this, is that it was dumped to hunt over. Bread DM would save up trashbags of old spec buns and private label (neither of which go to thrift) to distribute around his preferred hunting spots. More "hunting" than hunting with him. poo poo got real dangerous around the middle of the day, when he was in the middle of a fifth.

Prairie Farm guys are assholes too; none of them wear masks and one I always see at a gas station parks in the only handicap spot so he can unload right in front of the door. I called him out on it one day and he just laughed about it.
